This isn't a "we need a new Head Coach" thread. That will be taken care of.


This isn't a "who will be cut" thread either. But I wanted to see what you guys thought about our offense and defense for next year.


What do you think about this...


WR1 - Robinson is having an ok season after he made the Pro Bowl in 2015. He is still our number 1 WR.


WR2 - Hurns is being paid as our number 2 but Lee is out playing him right now, but Hurns can still play.


WR3 - Lee has been a joy to watch outside of his drops in week 1. Glad to have him.


FB - Hopefully we draft a solid FB in round 6 or 7, or UDFA but we gotta get back to the basics bc our running game is horrible.


RB - Cook, Fournette, just draft some speed. A homerun hitter. I would keep Ivory as insurance and goal line but he's averaging 3.3 ypc. Same thing with Yeldon.


TE - Lewis will probably come back for his blocking. Thomas has not lived up to his contract but surely we don't just cut him bc we know what he can do. So I think we will have the same group next season.


Offensive Line - (takes deep breath)...Linder will be snapping the ball, we know that much. Parnell will probably stick around as depth or may even get another year as a starter. Cann has been surprisingly bad. Maybe we can get a veteran and draft a lineman or 2.


Defense - I'm hoping the new coach switches to a 3-4


Odrick as a DE

Jackson as a DE

Draft a NT or maybe put Day in there?


LB's Smith and Jack inside and Fowler and Yannick as your outside backers.


Secondary - Cyp has shown he can play. Gipson will likely be back at FS. Corners will be Ramsey, Colvin, and maybe draft another since Prince is on a 1 year contract? I'd resign him.


Myers has shown he can be trusted. Norman will be our punter.


Greene blasted on the scene in 2015 as a return man but maybe he can regroup. If not then Lee can.


That leaves the most important spot...Quarterback. I've been hard on Bortles but this will be the most important offseason of his young career. I do think we will draft insurance and he will be judged by the new coach with a clean slate.


Then maybe we can have the season we all hoped for this year....only it will all come together in 2017.
